Probably low voltage DC anyway ...

The skip loading looks like work experience in action.

Some of the accidents were remarkably inevitable, such as demolishing a wall from the bottom up and putting a ladder up on icy ground. I'll bet the warehouse owner wishes they had splashed out for anti-collision posts around the racking ends too.

The comments on youtube say 40v.

Still give him a nice tingle to keep him awake from the back emf when the (very inductive) motor is disconnected :)

I'm still wondering how you do "drive" a wheelbarrow full of stuff down a slope, safely

I'm coming to the conclusion that the only answer is "not in a wheelbarrow"

It's not like it was a particularly steep (or long) slope

Probably the same way I take a wheelchair down a slope - backwards and slowly. You have much more control that way and the extra weight gets transferred to your feet, increasing your grip. If you do have to go down wheelbarrow first, let go if it gets out of control (not advised with wheelchairs).

They are just like the local cricket team doing fielding practice.

That big crane, sliding down the slope, though. I can't believe how brave that man was overtaking it.
